If you get this question “where do you get your protein?” answer “plants!” ย This is a common question that dogs all vegan. I also like to answer, “Where do 2-ton elephants or 1,500 pound cow get their protein?” PLANTS! ย Skip eating the cow, or elephant and get your protein from plants, just like those amazing animals.
